You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin. Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your family, Kate offers counselling services in Canmore and the surrounding area. Many clients come in unsure of what kind of therapy is right for them, and that’s not just okay, it’s entirely normal. You don’t need to know the answers to start.

Whatever brings you here, individual therapy, couples counselling or family-based sessions,

Kate’s role is to guide the process with warmth, clarity, and experience.

Couples Counselling

Relationships are complex, and when life gets challenging, our relationships can suffer. Perhaps you are wondering how you got to this point, you may be feeling overwhelmed and are unsure of how to reconnect.

​

I work with couples who are experiencing communication break-down, conflict, lack of intimacy or difficulty expressing emotions and needs.

 

The good news is, effective couples counselling can get you back on track.

​

  • Improve communication

  • Resolve conflict & foster trust

  • Strengthen your bond

Family Counselling

Discover ways of interacting with those you care about, in ways you can feel proud of. You may be feeling distant from those who matter most and are stuck in patterns that aren't serving any of you.

​​

I work with families who are navigating big emotions, are finding that communication turns to conflict and are having difficulty getting through to one another.

​​​

Family therapy can help you connect in more meaningful ways. 

​

  • Deepen empathy & understanding

  • Collaboratively solve problems

  • Navigate major life transitions

Individual Therapy & EMDR

Gain insight and strategies to cope more effectively with life's challenges.You may be ready to relate to yourself with more kindness and drop limiting negative beliefs. 

​

I work with individuals who find themselves stuck in unskillful behaviours, who are ready to release from past trauma and who wish to foster self-compassion.

​

Individual counselling can support you in the changes you long for.

​

  • Learn to be kinder to yourself
